May 29, 2022 - The Paso Robles is, as always, 100% Zin, right? Apparently not! This is 95% Zin and 5% Petite Sirah. We pulled this after finishing a ‘10 East Bench. The difference was amazing! This cuvee was much brighter with a big berry flavor. While a year older, the wine had a distinct freshness over the East Bench with telltale rhubarb and cherry, but also cloves, cinnamon and maybe some blackberry. The tannins appear to be fully integrated. 14.8% alc. Some sediment. With pork barbecue ribs. 05.29.22. Recommended.

July 4, 2020 - No real notes, but we enjoyed this quite a lot. Garnet at its core. Notes of cinnamon, cinnamon bark, rhubarb, tarragon on the nose. Big and bright on the nose and palate, and perhaps some RS. The fruit is a bit sweet, but the sweetness is more than just ripe fruit. The nose is ripe with boysenberry, brown sugar and candied apple. While the tannins are integrated, the brightness of wine at first lifts and them becomes a bit heavy. Some sediment. 14.8% alc. With bbq rubbed chicken. 07.05.20. Recommended.

June 19, 2020 - Full bodied Zin, very well structured even at 11 years old. Could easily go another 4-6 maybe even 7 years with proper cellaring. Loaded with dark rich ripe black fruit. Quite a big Zin.
